    There is no difference compared to a web page - the permissions are still handled server-side, I'm just relaying the events via DDP.

    Looks nice - Meteor natively speaks DDP so it makes most sense to use when talking to Meteor, but for other back-ends I will certainly consider WAMP! (no reason why this principle …

    This is not the same thing by a long shot - you cannot force a Google Play update, and that update will take hours or days to trickle down to the users. What we're talking about is…

    AFAIK The reactive part is not that easy to with Mysql et al - sure, you can hack around stored procedures, UDF and such, but it's far from being elegant. If you "think in SQL", th…

    Just wondering - what auto-update mechanisms are we talking about when it comes to native apps?

    Performance-wise Qt is quite good, but still comes up a bit short on the Widget quality and consistency side - this is where project like my native component-wrappers come in to th…

    Yes, I'm using Asteroid to talk DDP/JSON with the rest of the Qt app. In the example, I'm using models (think MVC) and updating that model, which then automagically updates the UI.…

    In all honesty, Qt has come a long way since 2012 - QML is reasonably well documented nowadays. Controls (the widget library), while not a silver bullet, are good enough (at least …

    That's certainly possible for the data part - but a lot harder for UI/code. With the method I'm using, you can actually push code AND UI to the client on the fly. As far as I know,…

    True - even for DDP there are already a number of client libraries not strictly related to Meteor front-ends, as seen from http://meteorpedia.com/read/DDP_Clients

    There were some concerns as to how native this is - I'm not rendering any HTML. The client side does use the JSON-style QML, but that's just the declarative UI language of Qt - you…

    This is a more full-stack approach - Qt and Xamarin are geared more towards creating standalone apps. What you get here is the reactive back-end (plus web-site for free). This setu…

    Hi, I'm Attila, the developer of Qondrite - the interface between Meteor and Qt in the article. If you have any questions, feel free to ask, I'm always looking for new perspectives…
